Looking at the character of Christian confession as seen in the New Testament scripture and the early Church, the doctrine and practice of the confession of faith have indeed evolved through Church history.
Here Akan discusses 5 major characters of Pop-confession and also 5 popular texts of scripture used to support this practice today. He concludes by sharing what Christian and godly speech should look like.
It promises to be very insightful and clear. Enjoy -
The Christian Confession
We live in an age where several Christians believe that their words are literally so powerful that whatever they say comes to pass. Often they term their speech as "Confession".
In fact, several will go as far as describing these speeches as "Confessions of faith". But does the Bible have something to say about this? What exactly does the Bible teach about "Confessions of Faith"?
I will attempt to explore these questions and more in this 2-part series. In this first episode, I'll consider what the Bible teaches in both the Old and New Testaments regarding the practice of confessions of faith. It promises to be so incisive, you'll want to watch the concluding episode. Enjoy. -
